Dream Flop For Kramer, Duhamel Busts

So long, Jonathan Duhamel
So long, Jonathan Duhamel

Jonathan Duhamel flew through his second round match, but he found a gritty opponent in Darren Kramer in round three. Kramer wore the Team PokerStars Pro down and just dealt the final blow in a hand that started in the last level.

Duhamel opened to 1,600 and called when Kramer three-bet to 1,800. The flop fell {5-Clubs}{6-Spades}{j-Spades}. Kramer set Duhamel in for his last 9,000. Call.

Kramer: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} for bottom set and nut-flush draw.
Duhamel: {8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{q-Spades} for a pair of eights and open-ended straight draw.

The board ran out {4-Spades}{6-Diamonds} to make the Canadian's straight but the same card gave his South African opponent the flush.
